The Coming Heroine: The Only Princess

Chapter 210 The Millennium Covenant!
Being trapped in the Devil’s Cave, Zhang Yunyan could be killed at any time, so she had no time to think about what the evil stone would do to her later. For this moment, it was a good thing. Once she encountered those devils, she could fight back with the jade instead of being killed with no resistance as before.

It was a good idea which not only turned the harmful object into a harmless one, but also turned the evil stone into a protective object.

Although Zhang Yunyan only had a little internal strength, it was enough to activate the jade to perform the powerful magic. Her internal strength was like a small and thin fuse that could initiate the magic in an instant and release powerful energies.

With this “weapon”, she was able to face Jiuyou Sage and the devils. Even if she could not defeat them, she would no longer allow herself to be trampled upon.

Zhang Yunyan was also a little worried that although this idea was very good, it was hard to predict how it would work out. She didn’t know who would be controlled between her and the jade, and whether the jade was willing to be used.

Perhaps, Yunyan and it could control and use each other. If so, it was tragic for Yunyan, because she still could not avoid becoming the tool of the evil stone to kill others.

With the idea of using jade, Zhang Yunyan did not feel happy from her worries, but she was not that desperate. She would try every method to use the jade, and avoid being controlled by it to do anything against her own intention. She would never hurt Shikong.

As for this, Yunyan felt a little confident. The rest of her life was short, and in her short life, she might be able to make her wish come true.

Zhang Yunyan felt better, and she became a little calm.

Shikong also felt better and was no longer worried.

As their mood had changed, the mysterious cave seemed no longer so terrible, and the tense atmosphere was gradually disappearing.

These two people began to talk. The topic was still the mysterious jade. They were discussing how to turn disadvantage into advantage and avoid being controlled by the jade.

It was easier said than done. These discussions were just empty talk, and they still had to figure out the ways in practice.

Though they were of little use, these discussions had relieved both of their minds. They felt less nervous and became calmer.

After the surprising blow, the jade was quiet again with countless “colorful stars” disappearing. They had all returned to Zhang Yunyan’s body to stay for a long time and perhaps a lifetime.

The dim jade became calm and unremarkable. One person who had not seen it would have thought that it seemed ordinary, but it had magic that was powerful.

Looking at the jade, Shikong felt nervous and he uttered a sigh. Despite its small size, it was powerful which was surprising. Although he was still frightened, he became curious and was eager to discover the unknown secrets, even all the secrets.

The monk smiled bitterly, knowing that it was impossible. Even Yun Feiyan did not know the details of the jade.

Her benefactor had been connected to the jade, but she did not feel any secret, nor did she understand the origin of the jade. As the target of it, how could he discover the secret of the monster? It was pure wishful thinking.

Suddenly, Shikong thought of something and asked, “Have you read those words on the jade? What were these words about?”

Zhang Yunyan was reminded of a few lines of untidy handwriting, and she was a little dissatisfied with her carelessness.

She sighed and said, “I was so confused by the jade that I forgot about it. I’ll look at it now, and perhaps I can find some secrets in it.”

In the Cave of Fate, it was dim and without the colorful “stars” that were shining, the jade was too dim to distinguish.

Zhang Yunyan raised her right hand in front of her eyes, and could not see it clearly in the dark. The words carved on the jade were also indecipherable.

She did not give up and kept reading the words carefully. She also used her left hand to touch them from time to time, hoping to combine the sense of touch to find out what these words were.

After a while, Yunyan finally recognized these words. She touched them as she read:

“Heaven and Earth represent Yin and Yang which nourish fate.

The meeting is called fate.

The existence and disappearance of fate are determined by fate.

The return of fate is determined fate.”

“Oh, these four sentences are like a poem, and there is rhyme in them. Every line contains the word of fate, so it must have something to do with fate. What are the implications of these words?” Shikong said, wondering the implied meanings of the four sentences.

Zhang Yunyan was thinking about it, but she could not find the answer for the time being.

These four sentences did not seem to be difficult to understand, but she could understand the literal interpretations, and the hidden meanings were hard to understand.

These two people exchanged their understanding of the words to find the deep connotations, but there was still no conclusion.

“Determined by fate”, “determined fate…” Zhang Yunyan read them silently, and she seemed to have seen them before.

Looking back, she thought of the glimmering words of fate since she entered the cave. She had mixed feelings and she didn’t know why, so she made wild guesses.

Soon, Yunyan recalled that in the Devil’s Cave, she had indeed seen the phrases such as “determined by fate” and “determined fate”. In addition to countless flashing words of fate, she also saw two lines of words with different handwritings.

She thought for a while and remembered the two sentences, “Love and hate are determined by fate; right and wrong determine fate.”

Yunyan still remembered that she had heard the so-called “millennium message” in the sealed cave under the Jade Dragon Lake in her hometown, as well as in the cave locked up by the demon monkey. “Millennial covenanter” also mentioned these two sentences, but she didn’t know what his intention was.

The same words, “determined by fate” and “determined fate”, appeared twice in the Devil’s Cave with different meanings.

Zhang Yunyan sighed. It was hard for her to guess the meaning of these four sentences, nor did she know the secret of the evil stone.

Shikong also felt that the meaning of the six words in the two places had no relationship, and there was little connection between them. In contrast, the words on the jade had another meaning.

They told Turtle Elf outside the cave to figure out what these four sentences meant on the jade.

Turtle Elf thought for a while and could not understand the hidden secret.

The four sentences on the jade were so profound that no exact explanation could be found. Zhang Yunyan and Shikong felt that the jade was special, and there must contain some startling secrets which could not be revealed temporarily.

Facing the unfathomable monster, both of them became nervous again, and their fear could not be dispelled.

In nervousness and suspicion, they heard a sudden voice, “Yun Feiyan, I’m right. You will come here again. You and I have made millennium covenant.”

It was the millennium covenant again! Zhang Yunyan was extremely shocked. Who was this man?

In the Cave of Fate, there was suddenly a mysterious voice, and Yunyan was very surprised. Was this mysterious figure the man who had left the millennium message in the cave where the demon monkey locked her? Was it the “millennial covenanter” in the cave under the Jade Dragon Lake?

If so, the man chased her down the cave again, using every method. It was extremely terrible and frightening!

Zhang Yunyan looked around in horror. The cave was empty and nothing had changed. The jade was dim without any signs of movement.

Shikong was puzzled. How did this guy know Yun Feiyan and even claim to have made millennium covenant? Who was he? Why couldn’t he see him?

He could not believe because his benefactor was so young that she could not have made promise with the man a thousand years ago.

Was the so-called “Millennium Covenant” the illusion made by the jade? Was… Was the Cave of Fate a cultivated elf? Was it talking?

In shock, they heard the voice again, and it sounded that it was beside them, “Yun Feiyan, you don’t need to find me. I am not in the Cave of Fate, and I have already left the cave. I can’t meet you face to face right now. This is the message I left for you a thousand years ago, and you can take it as a greeting.”

This voice was in the cave, but it seemed very far yet very clear, and it seemed to come from the sky, and the ancient times with a deep and long-lasting charm. It was spread to this place, full of mystery and it was clear.

Zhang Yunyan and Shikong were shocked. Indeed, it was not the illusion of the jade.

She was impressed by the two “millennium messages” she had heard before. From memory, the ways of speaking and intonation in the three places were very similar, and even the words were identical, as if they came from the same person.

Did this sound really come from a thousand years ago?

Zhang Yunyan still couldn’t believe it. It was impossible that a thousand years ago, one could have predicted that she would be trapped in the Devil’s Cave and someone would leave a clear message.

Even Xiao Tianlong would not believe that it would happen. Instead, he would suspect that it was done by monsters. She also didn’t believe that there would be such a thing. Perhaps as the imperial master said, this was the illusion of magic and the elves in the Cave of Fate were casting a mist before their eyes to lure them.

This was the only explanation. No one had such powerful ability to predict that Zhang Yunyan would come to the Cave of Fate at this time. Nobody could know that including Zhang Yunyan, let alone the ancient man from a thousand years ago.

Yunyan was still looking around. The cave was silent, with no sign of movement or change.

In nervousness, a thought flashed across her mind, and then Zhang Yunyan began to panic. If the man who left the millennium message in the three caves existed, it could be the same person, and the dangers and disasters she had encountered must have something to do with that person.

If so, that guy set up the traps in all places a thousand years ago. With different kinds of monsters hidden in these places, the person used them to deal with her a thousand years later. It was sinister and vicious for him to use all kinds of methods.

In the cave under the Jade Dragon Lake, the “millennial covenanter” placed the white monster dragon to hurt her.

In the cave where the demon monkey confined her, the man who left the so-called millennium message preset two demons including the “stone table” and the “stone bead” to hurt her. The man spared no expense.

At this moment, that guy chased her down to the Devil’s Cave in the Qinglong Mountain. He preset traps and asked the terrible jade to torture and control her. How sinister and venomous he was.

She would either be hurt to death by the monster, or be used by the hex to kill others. That man was vicious, and wouldn’t let her go.

The red, yellow and blue evil air of the stone bead was still in her body and it was already mixed together with the colorful “stars” of the jade. Two kinds of evil air in the body were more powerful and stronger. She did not know what kind of danger and disaster would happen, and it was harder for her to bear.
